As far as I can tell, the Pfizer and Moderna "data releases" are identical. Basically press releases giving the top line result.

Pfizer hit their interim analysis point before Moderna did, but only by a few days.



They are not identical, unless (unknown to me, but possible) Pfizer has released more since the initial press release. Pfizer (again at least in the initial release) said a number of infections, and "at least 90% effective". Moderna released a number of infections and the number in that who got the placebo vs vaccine.

The difference is not very big, but to those who like numbers it is big enough.
